To some of us, tattoos are tiny commemorative pieces of life-changing events; to others - symbols with deep hidden meanings or works of art perfected to infinity. Yet, there’s one other category of tattoo designs that are mostly there to make you giggle, and remember that not everything in life must be serious business. Yup, we’re talking about funny tattoos, and wouldn’t you know it - we’ve also created a list dedicated to funny tattoo designs.
So, what makes regular tattoo designs funny, you might ask? Well, for starters, you could always just do a cartoon character, since those are always funny (like, how could SpongeBob SquarePants not make you smile?). However, cartoon characters are just the surface, and there are plenty more ways you could turn regular tattoo ideas into funny ones. For one, it’s the placement. Let’s say you have a scar that’s pretty nasty on its own, but having a great sense of humor, you can always turn it into something fun just by carefully placing a tattoo near it. Or, if it’s the placement you’re going for, you could just always do a face on the back of your head. Now that’s a real head-turner! Then there are poems; remember the Dave-Microwave one? And there are unique tattoos, the never-before-seen pieces of human ingenuity, the showcase of originality of humor. But since we’re having a bit of a hard time describing them, you’ll just have to see them for yourself.
Now, get your eyes ready to absorb the images of some of the most creative funny tattoos circulating around the internet today. Even if you’re not looking for tattoo inspo right now, just looking at these puppies will make your day brighter and raise your appetite for some hilarious ink. Be sure to rank these funny tattoo ideas to your liking since now they are in no particular order! And lastly - share this article with your friends if you feel like it.

Isn’t there a CoolMathGame about a penguin building a device to fly or something?
Funny Eyebrows Tattoo
They look great. But I hope you do free touch ups because tattooed brows fade to orange fairly fast. Ppl don't consider this when they do it. Especially if they have eyebrows naturally. Like microbladed brows. If you get them reshaped. Your eyebrows will look busted in like a year. You have to keep doing it. So I hope you will touch them up every year for them because it's a very very expensive thing to do. I got mine done without knowing this. Now I have to keep getting them done. Or live with orange blotches on my eyebrows until it fades completely in 2-5 years. Nobody tells you this when you get them done.
With Alopecia you don't have to pluck the eyebrows. It makes all of your hair fall out. Including eyebrows and eyelashes. Notice how the person in the photo doesn't have lashes?

I love this. And the style is so much better than a botched 'photo-realistic' portrait tattoo.
Good thing bored panda is here to save us from the wirty dords!
Jesus. BP staffers are a bunch of pussies. That censorship is taking things too far.
To be fair, in the US there are a lot of busybodies who will freak out if this language is used, especially when there are people under the age of 18 or 21 are around. Several Pandas that comment frequently are well below that age. They are covering there own a**es.

What's funny about this one? Anyway, why are they called hand tattoos, since they are not on the hand?
Funny Cat Eating Ramen Leg Tattoo
I just spent way to much time thinking the little red horns were it's eyes
Dope. But yet another example of a beautiful tattoo that's going to look horrible in a year or two. Fine line & heavily detailed small tattoos look great for the first year. Then they slowly melt & bleed together. Look up the girl who got a whole sleeve like this. Or the girl who had her hands done. Or the woman with the huge thigh tattoo that's now a giant blob.

Funny Name Mistake Tattoo
I'm thinking that no "mistake was made". I figured they are the names of her kids or siblings, and Matis has transitioned.
I can’t imagine she would have done it this way without consulting Malory first. All it says to me is that she and Malory both have a sense of humour. Thought she’d had a son, found out she had a daughter instead and is apologising for the mistake. It doesn’t get more supportive than that.
Load More Replies...No, I think her son was trans and was instead her daughter
Load More Replies...If this is for a child who discovered their gender later I fully support this. My son came out to me as a gay man at the age of 16. I only wish I had seen this before so I could have echoed it to him - "I've known you were gay since you were six, I've loved you since you were born" Any parent who doesn't show their child this sort of love regardless of gender or sexuality doesn't deserve to be a parent.

This is from an episode of Powerpuff Girls. If I recall correctly, a gang of bad guys disguise themselves as the girls to frame them for their crimes. The silly part is that the disguises are terrible, but a lot of the townspeople are fooled.
Yep, even fooled the girls during the confrontation. "This isn't working! Everyone just fight your counterpart, ok?"

Funny Rat Tattoo
Didn’t you check if she could actually draw first? She can’t btw. Tattoo artists will draw the design, agree it, make a transfer of it then ink you. If they don’t have the full equipment they can always draw on the skin with non-toxic ink. This is your cue to tell her to rethink her future career.
I feel like it was done bad on purpose. Look how nicely done the hat is

I kinda like it. I'm also kinda scared of it, and what it might do to me if it met me in a dark alley on a foggy night, but I like it.

I honestly don't even understand censoring this. Is anybody aroused by this? Shouldn't we rather be worriedabout that person? It's just a body. It's just existing. Apparently that is already too much... Some people. Sorry. Rant over. :)

Therapist: I see you got yet another tattoo. What motivated you to chose this design? Me: Drugs and Alcohol. Therapist: *Shaking their head* What did we say, no more drugs and alcohol! Okay, changing the subject, what's you DuoLingo streak. Me: Una racha de cien días. (One hundred day streak.) Therapist on the phone: Hi, I'd like to schedule a therapy session for *the therapist's name* at 3:00 next Tuesday, thank you, bye. Okay, you're dismissed early.

Funny Grave Leg Tattoo
I love this one 😂😂 although I lost my father somewhat over a month ago and will definitely get something that will mark all the fantastic things and will be either happy, mournful or even silly, I have an idea for a silly insider joke kind of tattoo. But he should have been the one person to get to age 150 so never “finally” in his case, although it kinda fits since he had a severe form of ALS, for his healthy version and for me always, it was always gonna be to soon, no matter how long. But still, awesome tattoo 👌

Funny Brand Loyalty Tattoo
😂😂 yup 👌. I will never say what people can or can not put on their body but even when you do something like this, which isn’t necessarily a silly tattoo (although the story behind this one could be a silly one instead of merely being a fan of the brand), anyway, something like this, it’s just too silly not to laugh. Nothing wrong with drinking Redbull and having Monster tattoo (they’re both energy drinks so that could be the passion/fandom instead of solely M brand). I don’t want to condemn this person for the clothing choices or having followed the tribal trend or whatever. Just laugh at the contradiction brand-loyalist vibes this picture gives without breaking down the person’s choices on other things 🤷🏻♀️☺️

It's very similar to the word "aryan" which white supremacists use to describe the "ideal" white race. It doesn't mean what they think but they still use it that way. So people will think he is racist by misreading the tattoo.
Load More Replies...Just the name, it’s done correctly. It’s just that if people misread this name, they could read “Aryan” as in the supposedly supreme white race
Load More Replies...No, you can read the explanation in the comments above I’d you’re still wondering what this might be about. It’s as innocent as can be but can be misinterpreted as racism if misread like with dyslexia

It took a while to understand it. I'll be honest, this is my least favourite one so far. But if the person who wears it likes it, then you do you.
